Today
was the local chili cook-off--we voted on the winning recipe
and Lori Rubin's samples took the prize. The theme of this
year's Sertoma booth is centered around the Sertoma Gang
cooking their chili in jail. The committee was represented
by Joe Schulte and Lori today and they promised excellent
costumes to go with the superb chili. Heidi Funk also took
this opportunity to share the new United Way brochures with
the group. They were donated by Wasau Paper and Range
Printing. Partner groups associated with Sertoma through
membership are Crisis Line, Kinship, Lutheran Social
Services, Lakes Area Senior Activity Center, and Confidence
Learning Center. We also contributed to many of the others
on the list. Many businesses that support Sertoma are also
included as sponsors of the United Way. Heidi had a little
fun when she got to the section that explained the focus of
giving for United Way. John Raboin supposedly paid her to
promote the Safe Ride Home Program which his office
supports. Heidi was very enthusiastic about getting kids
involved in the Imagination Library. Other focal programs
included Biggest Loser, Women's Health, Give Kids a Smile
and the Free Tax Sites. She also encouraged people to help
them find 20 qualified families working towards financial
independence since they have federal money waiting for the
matching savings program. Remember NO MEETING SEPTEMBER
